Engine Family:
The models listed (1190, 1194, 1290, 1294, 1390, 1394, 1490, 1494, 1594, 1690) are typically powered by Case IH's own diesel engines, or engines supplied by established diesel engine manufacturers like Perkins, depending on the specific year and region of manufacture. Engine families might include Case 4.236, 4.248, or similar displacements.
Displacement Range:
Likely ranging from approximately 3.9 liters (236 cubic inches) to 4.4 liters (248 cubic inches) or larger, depending on the specific model within the series. Exact specifications would be detailed in the manual.
Horsepower Range:
Expected horsepower ratings to vary across the model range, typically from around 70 HP for the lower end (e.g., 1190) up to 100+ HP for the higher end (e.g., 1690). Specific HP for each model variant would be in the manual.
Injection System:
Mechanical direct injection or indirect injection, typically utilizing rotary or inline injection pumps. Detailed specifications for pump timing, injector pressures, and maintenance will be provided.
Engine Oil Change:
Typical intervals for engine oil and filter changes would be specified, likely in the range of 250-500 operating hours, depending on operating conditions and oil quality. Specific recommendation in manual.
Transmission Fluid Change:
Intervals for transmission and hydraulic fluid changes, crucial for the proper operation of power shift and hydraulic systems, would be detailed, often around 1000-1500 hours.
Greasing Points:
A lubrication chart detailing daily, weekly, and monthly greasing points for steering, PTO, hitch, and other pivot points would be essential and included.
Engine Oil Specification:
The manual will list the required API service classification (e.g., API CD or CE) and recommended viscosity grade (e.g., SAE 15W-40) for the diesel engine oil.
Hydraulic Transmission Fluid:
Specific recommendations for hydraulic/transmission fluid (e.g., Case IH TDTO, UTTO) and coolant type (e.g., ethylene glycol based) will be provided. Proper fluid is vital for the shared hydraulic and transmission systems.
Hydraulic Leaks:
Common issues might include hydraulic system leaks due to aging seals and hoses, particularly in the lift system or power steering. The manual will aid in identifying and replacing these.
Transmission Wear:
Wear in the transmission, especially clutch packs in Power Shift models or synchronizers in Synchromesh, can occur with high hours. The manual's diagnostic section will be key to addressing this.
Electrical Connections:
Corrosion or looseness in electrical connections, particularly in older machines, can lead to starting, charging, or lighting issues. The electrical schematics are invaluable here.
